The Singing Pub - Downings

Went to Donegal for a scuba diving weekend. The Singing Pub was just down the road from the hostel we were staying in. I heard all about the great steaks cooked on a lava plate. I tried it for myself along with my fellow buddies and I must say the steak was fantastic. Great food, great Guinness and great craic.

One word.....WOW! Let me elaborate..... This restaurant is located in a stunning setting, a charming picturesque thatched pub, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The interior is gorgeous and cozy, with old-fashioned style that completely captivates you as you are surrounded by eclectic decorations such as old banknotes, paintings, quirky humorous plaques, beer barrels, pictures, fabulous old beams, and ship ropes helms. And let's not forget the welcoming open turf fire! But the real highlight is the food! The steak was succulent, tasty, and beautifully presented with 3 sauces. The chips were perfectly crispy and the portion sizes were just right. On top of all that, this restaurant is great for families, with a lovely play area out front for the children to enjoy while you savor the unique experience that is 'The Singing Pub/ Sibìn Ceoil.'

The menu is devine..something for everyone. Such a beautiful pub in such a beautiful location. The staff are efficient and friendly (and very busy! . I'll always return to this gem for dining/drinking.

Absolutely delicious seafood platter and sizzling steak warm cozy atmosphere and a fantastic pint of Guinness hard to beat
